The Fediverse (and FOSS in general) is inherently (radically) political simply by the nature of it's construction and organization. That said I think it's important to stress to new users that one's experience can be curated to the degree that normal social media cannot.

Until someone open-sources TikToks algorithm, the Fediverse cannot compete on entertainment value, what it competes on is quality and intentionality. I think it's important we put that talking point front and center. We don't need to convince the users who just want to scroll memes (even though this post is literall r/memes haha).
